We visualise developmental biology as the study of progressive changes that occur within cells, tissues and organisms themselves during their life span. This title includes nine chapters that cover topics that endeavour to capture the spirit of this dynamic discipline. It is suitable for different kinds of scientists, including basic researchers.
